wierd ini files. The ini files are still used as an intermediate step,
but a sophisticated python library exists to help build them more
easily.
SConscript:
add the new embedded file stuff
remove all of the old object description junk
base/inifile.cc:
base/inifile.hh:
get rid of findDefault and findAppend since they were the source
of much evil.
base/trace.cc:
For now, if we don't have the dprintf_stream set up, dump
to standard out. We probably want a command line option
for this.
dev/alpha_console.cc:
PioDevice now takes a platform parameter.
All PioDevices must have a pio_latency parameter. We stick
a dummy parameter in here for now until we get rid of the
builder stuff.
dev/alpha_console.hh:
don't need Platform anymore
dev/baddev.cc:
PioDevice now takes a platform parameter.
All PioDevices must have a pio_latency parameter. We stick
a dummy parameter in here for now until we get rid of the
builder stuff. Same for the platform parameter, though we just
pass the PioDevice a null parameter since it isn't used by
this device and it's quicker.
dev/baddev.hh:
fix #include guards
dev/etherlink.cc:
rename parameters.
dev/ethertap.cc:
rename parameters
dev/ide_ctrl.cc:
All devices need an address even if it will get overwritten later.
dev/ide_disk.cc:
use an enum for the drive ID stuff.
rename disk_delay -> delay
Actually, I think that we should implement "cable select" and
have the controller tell the drive what it is.
dev/io_device.cc:
dev/io_device.hh:
All IO devices take a Platform *
dev/ns_gige.cc:
all devices need an io_bus. rename header_bus to io_bus
We don't need stuff for the interrupt controller since
it's all in the platform now.
dev/ns_gige.hh:
We don't need stuff for the interrupt controller now since
it's all in the platform.
dev/pciconfigall.cc:
Pass a dummy NULL to the PioDevice for the platform since
we don't need one.
dev/pcidev.cc:
Move a bunch of common functionality into the PciDev
dev/platform.hh:
remove unneeded code
dev/tsunami.cc:
remove unused param
dev/tsunami_cchip.cc:
pass platform pointer
dev/tsunami_io.cc:
dev/tsunami_pchip.cc:
dev/uart.cc:
pass platform variable
dev/uart.hh:
don't need to keep a platform pointer. it's in the base class
kern/linux/linux_system.cc:
kern/tru64/tru64_system.cc:
rename some parameters
sim/builder.cc:
clean up builder code. use more parameters from the
config node. all sections with a type= are now created,
the old mechanisms no longer work
sim/builder.hh:
remove some extra variables since they are found in the ConfigNode
sim/main.cc:
add a quick hack command line argument -X to dump out the
embedded files. (probably should be fixed up a little.)
accept .mpy files
printing to the streams has to happen after the hierarchy
is built since we're moving away from param contexts
sim/param.cc:
add parsing support for ranges
sim/process.cc:
isValid isn't very useful anymore. interpret the names
stdout, stderr, cout, cerr for the file descriptors
sim/pyconfig/SConscript:
Add Action handlers for creating an embedded python file
and for creating an embedded C file.
use these action handlers to embed all objects found in the objects
tree into the binary along with the importer and the m5config stuff
sim/pyconfig/m5config.py:
Major changes to the original configuration file generator. These
changes largely involve implementing copy-on-write like semantics
for all of the SimObjects. Real documentation must be written.
sim/universe.cc:
Universe becomes a SimObject since we don't really have the notion of
param contexts in the python code.

This is release m5_1.0_beta1 of the M5 simulator. This file contains brief "getting started" information and release notes. For more information, see http://m5.eecs.umich.edu. If you have questions, please send mail to m5sim-users@lists.sourceforge.net. WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT) ------------------------- Since you're reading this file, presumably you've managed to untar the distribution. The archive you've unpacked has three subdirectories: - m5: the simulator itself - m5-test: regression tests and scripts to run them - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5 (currently ply and libelf) M5 is a capable, full-system simulator that current supports both Linux 2.4/2.6 and the proprietary Compaq/HP Tru64 version of Unix. We are able to distribute Linux bootdisks, but we are unable to distribute bootable disk images of Tru64 Unix. If you have a Tru64 license and are interested in obtaining disk images, contact us at m5-dev@eecs.umich.edu. WHAT'S NEEDED ------------- -GCC(3.X) -Python(2.2.2+) WHAT'S RECOMMENDED ------------------ -MySQL (for statistics complex statistics storage/retrieval) -Python-MysqlDB (for statistics analysis) GETTING STARTED --------------- The following steps will build and test the simulator. The variable "$top" refers to the top directory where you've unpacked the files, i.e., the one containing the m5, m5-test, and ext directories. There are three different build targets and three optimizations in each level: Target: ------- ALPHA - Syscall emulation simulation KERNEL - Linux full system simulation KERNEL_TLASER - Tru64 Unix full system simulation Optimization: ------------- m5.debug - debug version of the code with tracing and without optimization m5.opt - optimized version of code with tracing m5.fast - optimized version of the code without tracing and asserts cd $top/m5/build scons TARGET/OPTLEVL # e.g. KERNEL/m5.opt, use -j N if you have a MP system cd $top/m5-test ./do-tests.pl -B ALPHA # test what you just built ./do-tests.pl -B KERNEL # test what you just built # wait for tests to run... # should end with "finished do-tests successfully!"
